but,
A daughter is a daughter all her Life".
As Zainab wrote these lines in her special diary,which was gifted by her Abbu,on her 15th birthday,she looked at the sleeping form of her Abbu,Mr.Asad Ahmed Khan.
Mr.Asad Ahmed Khan,India's second largest billionaire,and the Chairman and CEO of Ahmed Khan Group Of Industries.
"Abbu is not of those people who love to show off their rich financial status in people.My Abbu is a one in a million.A Gem of a person.My Inspiration,My Guide,My Best Friend.
Before my cute and sweet Ammi,my Abbu comes first. People say that the girls are the most closest to their mothers.I agree to this fact,but,in my case,I am the most closest to my Abbu. I always share everthing with my Abbu.I feel relieved when Abbu tries to make me confortable with his soothing words.His advices and guidance play a pivotal role in my Life.His thoughts about Life are really unique and worth praising.
It was that very day,when i entered in St.Xaviers College. I was really scared of getting ragged,as,it has been popular in all colleges,to irritate and play pranks on the newcomers.
I was really nervous and was getting nervous fits. Dadi,Ammi and Tamatar Phuppi couldnt calm me down.
But,it was my Abbu,my Super Hero,who held my hands and assured me that nothing is going to happen.He told me not to be scared of anything.
As he said those words,it calmed me down,a lot.He hugged me tightly,promising me that he will never leave his Zainab,angel of Asad Ahmed Khan.
From that day onwards,i took up challenges that came my way and overcame them with confidence that my Abbu instilled in me.
It is only because of Abbu,that,I am here,in this position.
In the position of CEO in Ahmed Khan Group of Industries.
Yes...
After completing my studies from London,i joined my Abbu's business...
Abbu gave me the desired independence,because,he thought,that I am a grown up girl and I am matured enough to take my own decisions.
I agree with Abbu. But,infront of Abbu,i was not that capable of getting that desired independence and matured enough to take decisions on my own...
But,being the ASAD AHMED KHAN,my Abbu explained me and made me understood that,at some point of Life,i will have to take decisions on my own and for that,i will have to believe myself and trust my capability.
Those words were the turning point of my career.I took Abbu's each and every single word,seriously,and applied them in each and every single step of my Life..."
And,now...
Here I am.
The daughter of Mr.Asad Ahmed Khan and Mrs.Zoya Asad Ahmed Khan,Ms.Zainab Asad Ahmed Khan.
Aaj main jo bhi hu,sirf aur sirf,meri Abbu ki badaulat hu.
Thank you so much,Abbu,for being in my Life to teach me,to guide me,to help me in each and every step of my Life.
May Allah bless you with a Long Life,so that you can see your grand childrens' face and play with them...
Love you,Abbu..
Happy Father's Day.
Yours,
Zainab.
